March 2010 - YouTube featured clip

Welcome to our featured clip for this issue!

With the youtube revolution over the past 10 years it
seems only fair to our members that the newsletter embraces
this. As well as featuring youtube videos, where available,
in Gasshuku reports and articles, we will be having one
clip picked by our editor every issue for our members to
feast there eyes on.

While videos should never be relied on for true technical
instruction, they can often act as a motivational tool and
this is the aim of this section...

During the
February 2010 IOGKF Chief Instructors Gasshuku, Sensei
Masukazu Kuramoto of Okinawa successfully passed his
Rokudan (6th Dan) grading. Kuramoto Sensei is
